Embarking on the journey of laser hair reduction at King Hamad American Mission Hospital (KHAMH), A’ali, is nothing short of transformative, writes Jayne Houghton.
With sessions starting off at a pocket-friendly BD10, the prospect of bidding adieu to the never-ending cycle of waxing and shaving has become an enticing reality.
Preferences regarding body hair have evolved over time and differ across cultures, whether it’s smooth legs, hairless armpits, or avoiding the daily shaving routine. Exploring laser hair removal proves to be a wise choice.
On your first visit, you’ll receive a complimentary consultation for laser hair reduction with KHAMH consultant dermatologist Dr Wanda Alemeo who will assess the sensitivity of your skin and the strength of your hair follicle. This treatment caters to all skin and hair types ranging from fair to dark, with a range of mixed wavelengths to ensure optimum results.
Over the past decade, laser hair reduction has gained popularity as a superior alternative to traditional methods. Its advantages lie in being more convenient than waxing, safer than chemicals that may cause skin burns, and less time-consuming than frequent shaving. The eradication of the hair follicle also minimises the risk of ingrown hairs, providing relief for those prone to this discomfort and potentially offering permanent results for some.
Laser hair reduction isn’t just a cosmetic procedure; it’s a cost-effective solution with lasting results. For those like myself, seeking refuge from the constant battle against increased bodily hair due to Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), this treatment offers not just smooth skin but a newfound sense of confidence.
What sets KHAMH apart is the marriage of cutting-edge technology and comfort. The advanced lasers operate at a faster pace, rendering quicker and more efficient treatments. The game-changer, however, is the incorporation of a cooling device that delivers super-chilled air in tandem with the laser itself. This not only minimises discomfort but also serves as a natural anaesthetic, ensuring a pain-free experience in which I can attest to!
